Young Entrepreneurs Business Week is designed to help students excel in the classroom. If your high school offers business courses or entrepreneurship clubs, YEBW is a complimentary program that expands upon in-school instruction. If your school doesn't, YEBW is the perfect supplement...
At our immersive, week-long summer program, students learn about business through hands-on curriculum, activities and competitions. At the first-year program Business Week, students gain experience running mock companies, developing business concepts and presenting to professionals in the business community.
